On the controls palette for the front panel, there should be a sub palette called Decorations. This contains many frames, borders and lines to use on the front panel.

See the attached image taken from LabVIEW 7.0

Using the Abort button to stop your VI is like using a tree to stop your car. It works, but there may be consequences.

If a frame in VB is what I remember it to be, then look at the Decorations palette. There is a flat frame, recessed frame, raised frame, and all sorts of other things. There is also a frame on the Dialog Controls palette.

Sounds like you found it, but for anyone looking at this thread in the future, just select the decoration and use the Reorder menu (drop down menu with two arrows forming a circle near the top of the screen) to send it to the back.
